9 Feeding EU Livestock 5 Mio EU farmers EUR 130 billion animals for food production 450 Mio tons of feed yearly Types of Feed : - Feed materials - Feed additives - Compound feed - Medicated feed 9

10 Feeding EU livestock Livestock sourcing in feeding stuffs (Mio ton/year) Source: FEFAC Forages Purchased straight feedingstuffs 230 Home-grown cereals Industrial compound feed 10

11 Feeding EU livestock Value of purchased compound feed in total animal output value Source: FEFAC 90% 80% 70% 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% Cattle Pigs Poultry Average 11

15 Resource efficiency Feed production: Knowledge on animal nutrition, metabolism Least cost formulation constant price Demand for resources increases, speculations Prerequisite for sustainable animal production 15

16 Feedmaterialconsumptionby the EU compound feed industry Feed cereals 47% Source: FEFAC, 2010 All others 5% Minerals, Additives & Vitamins Dried forage 3% 2% Dairy products 1% Pulses 1% Cakes & Meals 27% Oils & Fats 2% Tapioca 0.5% Co-products from Food Industry 12% 16

17 Origin of proteins used for animal feeding in the EU-27 in 2007/08 Rapeseed meal 15% Coprah/Palmist 2% Cotton meal 0.5% Corn gluten feed 2% Pulses 2% Dried forage 3% Others 1% Fish meals 2% Source: FEFAC / PROLEA Sunflower meal 5% Soya meal 68% 17

18 EU-27 balance sheetfor protein rich feed materials in 2007/08 EU production (*1,000 T) EU consumption (*1,000 T) Products Proteins Products Proteins Source: FEFAC / PROLEA Selfsufficiency Soyabean meal ,220 17,823 2% Sunflower meal 4, ,503 1,246 63% Rapeseed meal 18,358 3,672 11,569 3,932 93% Cottonseed meal % Copra-Palm meal 0 0 2, % Pulses 1, , % Dried forage 4, , % Corn gluten feed 2, , % Miscellaneous % Sub-Total 6,782 25,651 26% Fishmeal % Total 7,089 26,210 27% 18

19 Resource efficiency Soy meal: worlds best protein : self sufficiency of EU-27 is low (2%) Since 2000 (BSE) ban of animal proteins in EU (before: 15 miotons) resulting in 10 % increase of soy consumption and the addition of pure amino acids July 2011 reintroduced Initiative on Responsible Soy (RTRS) 19

20 Resource efficiency Soy meal and corn gluten feed from US, Brazil and Argentina non EU authorized GMO blockage risk for economic loss* February 2011 : 0,1% Threshold for non EU approved GM events in feed imported from third countries (* read more in DG AGRI report on -ECONOMIC IMPACT OF UNAPPROVED GMOS ON EU FEED IMPORTS AND LIVESTOCK PRODUCTION) 20

21 Resource efficiency 85 mioton of by-products from food and drink for animal production 60 mioton are used by EU compound feed industry Ex. Sugar from sugar beet 21

22 About Eufetec Importance of feed production Resource efficiency Ecological footprint Animal Health and welfare Safe Feed for safe Food Conclusions 22

23 Ecological Footprint CFP = total amount of CO 2 equivalents that are emitted during total production chain livestock = 10 to 18 % of total EU emission (EU report) Reduce CFP - Improve efficiency of production - Decrease CFP of Feed production Feed production chain from crop growing to feed production more efficient processing, more digestible feed, 23

24 About Eufetec Importance of feed production Resource efficiency Ecological footprint Animal Health and welfare Safe Feed for safe Food Conclusions 24

25 Animal Health and Welfare Optimizing feed formula Ex. cows Oxidative stress leads to animal health problems and may lower the daily milk production Feed can be supplemented with anti-oxidative products (Vitamin E and Se) Animal health (reduce mastitis) Enhance quality of animal products (Meat color and rancidity) 25

26 Animal Health and Welfare Optimizing feed formula Ex. poultry Lameness negative implications for both bird welfare and productivity levels dietary silicon supplement for reducing lameness* (*source: Short, F.J., E.J. Burton, D.J. Belton, G.E. Mann and C.C. Perry. Efficacy of a novel form of dietary silicon supplement in reducing lameness in poultry) 26

28 Safe feed for safe food REGULATION (EC) No 183/2005laying down requirements for feed hygiene Feed safety assurance system based on HACCP principles Prerequisite Good Feed Hygiene Practices Requirements feed facilities Requirements for equipment Cleaning and disinfection Pest control programme Handling of waste Personal hygiene Raw materials Handling of feed Packaging of feed Heat treatment Storage and Transport Traceability Training Community and national guides to good practice 28

29 Safe feedforfood: HACCP To do To obtain What is HACCP? { { Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point 29

30 Safe feed for safe food: HACCP Hazards Risk = Frequency x Severity Biological Salmonella Chemical Mycotoxins Contaminants: heavy metals, pesticides, dioxin Cross-contamination of veterinary medicinal products, coccidiostats Errors in supplementation: salt, amino acids Physical Metal parts 30

31 Safe feedforfood: HACCP Critical control point (CCP)is a point, step or procedure at which controls can be applied to prevent, eliminate or reduce to acceptable (critical) levels. Some examples 31

32 Safe feedforfood: HACCP Raw material intake Ex. Mycotoxinsin cereals e.o., Variety of clinical and sub-clinical symptoms Nephrotoxicity, negative impact in performance of farm animals economic implications Unavoidable presence Prevention: Risk analysis raw material Monitoring raw material storage/intake Feed safety assurance system at suppliers level 32

33 Safe feedforfood: HACCP Mixing step Ex. coccidiostats: carry-over, cross contamination Feed hygiene prerequisite : dust management, cleaning of equipment HACCP prevention and control measures: scheduling of production (reduce), Determine degree of cross contamination remove coccidiostats from production line (eliminate) 33

34 Safe feed for safe food: traceability Traceability (down and upstream) Actions: detailed record keeping Objectives: Traceability Targeted recall Feed labeling Information to authorities 34

35 Conclusions Compound Feed Industry: - Important key role player in animal production - Challenges and responsibilities - Enhance animal health and welfare - Reduce environmental impact (CFP) - Feed Security and Profitability through resource management - Feed/food Quality and Safety 35
